Two Methods to Obtain the Contents of a System Folder in Clustered ONTAP

Method 1: Using
WGET for Windows

Note > This
assumes you’ve set up the SPI (Service Processor Infrastructure) for web access
already - if not see Part
1 of this article and/or Method
3 from here - and that the files you want to get are available via this
method.

Which recursively (hence
the r) to a depth
of 1 (hence the ‘ell’ -l 1
or level 1) - so as not to start recursively grabbing stuff from other directories
- grabs all the files in the web folder path specified (here a Cluster with
Cluster Management IP Address of 10.0.1.60, node nac3-01, and the stats > archive
folder), ignores SSL certificate issues, and uses the specified credentials to
log into the web server.

Note 2 > If this
is your first time using FileZilla Server, you’ll want to create a user (Edit
> General > Add User) with password (for the FTP session we’ll establish
next), and a shared folder (Edit > Shared Folders > Add Folder), and give
the user file and folder create permissions in this folder, and set the folder
as home directory for this user.

2) Then run the commands as in the example below (again
we’re grabbing the contents of the stats > archive folder):
